Gregg Berhalter is the result of the injuries that exhausted Chicago fire in the early part of the Kingdom and the line will further benefit the line.
Chicago, FC Dallas 3-1, last 3-1, beating 3-1, was dragged to the left for eight minutes.
This was the first victory in the former United States Technical Director Berhalter, which was without several players – including Kellyn Acosta and Romingue Kouame – the cause of injury.
“We need children who can adapt and are something we want to play with this intensity,” Berhalter said.
“It’s a certain workload and you want to play outside the ball. Energy costs and is very distance for children and now they have to adapt to it.
“So you see some guys who manage it well and some children who have difficulty.
“But we hope that over time everyone will work well and the team will be better.”
Chicago will try to build this victory until Toronto FC on Saturday, and the reds take a point only from the first three games of the season.
This was the fourth time in the last five days, they could not win any of the first three matches to start a campaign, sending nine of the eight goals in 2007 and closed three matches after the second match.
However, coach Robin Fraser was positive after 2-0 defeats in FC Cincinnati last week: “I have positive I can extract it.
“I think the feeling is that you want to win every game. If you lose a somewhere in 34, you still have a bummed. I will have a new group and a new coaching system, there will be a new coaching system.”

Match forecast – Toronto FC Win
The fire defeated in five straight congregations with Toronto (W3 D2), puts only two levers in these games.
The Reds scored a lot of goals in each of the 12 previous 12 matches before this run.
Chicago, for the last time, last time won the first victory in 2025 on the road. The fire won twice in the history of the club (all three) and 2008 twice in 1999 and 2008.
This will be the first home game of Toronto’s season. None of the last 29 home matches for Toronto in all competitions until July 2023 ended in the draw (W12 L17).
The reds are under pressure after a poor start, but the superiority of the home can be enough for them.
